Previous state-selected spectra of methanol in the 5ν1 OH stretch overtone region [O. V. Boyarkin, T. R. Rizzo, and D. S. Perry, J. Chem. Phys. 110 (23), 11346 (1999)] revealed structure indicating intramolecular vibrational redistribution (IVR) on three t ...
We propose results ensuring properties of a component-based system from properties of its interaction model and of its components. We consider here deadlock-freedom and local progress of subsystems. This is done in the framework of interaction systems, a m ...
We have performed first-principle calculations of the electronic structure and exchange couplings for the nanotube compound Na2V3O7 using the local-density approximation Hubbard parameter U approach. Our results show that while the intraring exchange inter ...
We report on the nonlinear optical dynamical properties of excitonic complexes in CdTe modulation-doped quantum wells, due to many-body interactions among excitons, trions, and electrons. These were studied by time and spectrally resolved pump-probe experi ...
The one-loop fermionic contribution to the probability of an instanton transition with fermion number violation is calculated in the chiral Abelian Higgs model in 1+1 dimensions, where the fermions have a Yukawa coupling to the scalar field. The dependence ...
Non topological solitons, Q balls can arise in many particle theories with U(1) global symmetries. As was shown by Cohen et al. [2], if the corresponding scalar field couples to massless fermions, large Q-balls are unstable and evaporate, producing a fermi ...
The problem of phase behaviour of solutions of globular proteins is approached by means of a Hard Core Yukawa fluid model with short-ranged attractions. We have determined the phase behaviour of this model system for different well widths, using a variety ...
When applying multiple refocusing pulses to characterize the cross-correlated relaxation of heteronuclear multiple quantum coherence 2NxHx in biomols., the unavoidable effects of pulse imperfections are compensated by the scalar couplings between nitrogen ...
Mol.-dynamics simulations of structural relaxation in electronically excited NO-doped solid neon are presented. The NO impurity is excited to its lowest A (3ss) Rydberg state, inducing a rearrangement of the surrounding medium in the form of a bubble, due ...
Sequential adsorption of N atoms on a MgO(100) supported Fe-7 cluster is studied using a density functional approach. For the number of adsorbates varying between one and six, the most favorable adsorption geometries are determined and the corresponding po ...
